It's Never Too Late
Imagine consuming
and utilizing all of the food you purchased. Actually, imagine growing your
food or raising it on your own land. How much would you reduce your carbon
footprint if you'd just carry a reusable shopping tote?
All over the U.S,
people are wasting food and investing in services, businesses, and luxuries
that threaten our skies, green spaces, wildlife, and waterways. Still,
49-year-old Charles M. Blow is proof that devoting yourself to the journey of
a green life right now is attainable for all of us.

NYC's Hidden Getaway
Thanks to a green
light from Manhattan's council members, Snohetta is going ahead with plans to
revitalize the green space at 550 Madison. Architects, plant experts, and
other design professionals are teaming up to create a tangible NYC oasis.
The current vision
includes lush green life, flora, and an unbelievable waterfall. There is more
information about the project on their website if you're as intrigued as we
are.

Harnessing Our Sun
Although costly,
the benefit of green architecture far outweighs the bill. The new Local laws
92 and 94 are now in effect, calling for solar paneling or green roof
systems.
The new push lines
construction projects up with greener cities and smaller carbon footprints as
a whole. The lawmakers hope the vote will increase the use of renewable
energy and help us leave toxic fuels in the past.
